We very much enjoyed the stay. The apt had everything we needed and Slawomir was an excellent host. He was vey communicative and helpful, bringing fresh towels mid week and an extra blanket for my daughter. Also, the apt was only a short 10 min walk to Sainsbury, the bus stop, and only a 25 min walk to the Palace of Holyroodhouse at the foot of the Royal Mile. The apt bldg had an elevator, which was very nice.Overall, I would highly recommend this apt.

Quality apartment in a great location

Property was extremely well maintained, in a fantastic location less than 10 minutes from the train station, and the host was very friendly and knowledgable. Groceries, pharmacy, coffee, and a ton of attractions all within a 10-15 minute walk. Spent a week walking everywhere with no need for a vehicle and minimal need of public transit. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to visit Edinburgh.

This was a great location to stay on my recent trip to Edinburgh. The apartment was very clean, well designed, with all the amenities one would want while traveling. The location was quiet but within walking distance of any sight you wanted to see. The host was exceptional. He stayed in communication with me. Was at the apartment when we arrived to show us around. Gave us helpful tips on how to navigate Edinburgh and was just genuinely a nice and vibrant person. I highly rate this property and the host!

We were even able to walk to the Royal Mile and New Town. We enjoyed looking out over the park and watching people and dogs playing. Communication with Slawomir was easy and he always responded quickly. He met us at check-in to make sure we understood how everything in the apartment worked. We would certainly stay here again.

Quiet, residential area

Salowmir maintains a very clean and modern property; everything we needed was in the flat. The location was quiet, with a nice view overlooking the park, and a view of Arthur’s Seat from the primary bedroom. The only issue we experienced was access to the bus lines that would take us to the more touristy areas. There may have been closer stops than we were able to find, but did not find this info in the flat. As he thinks of pretty much everything else, it is possible that a previous guest removed this info, but this would be the one improvement we would suggest. We knowingly booked in a residential area, as we wanted less noise from the tourist areas; if you prefer to be out of the high traffic areas, we recommend this flat and host! He was very accommodating and flexible when our arrival times had to change.
